1 Live for others while on earth you live,
Give for others what you have to give;
Flowers do not hoard their sweet perfume,
Nor withhold the glory of their bloom.
Refrain:
Live for others while here you dwell,
Live for others, the good news tell!
If your life is wasted great will be your shame,
Live for others in Jesus’ name.
2 Sunshine helps to melt the winter’s snow,
Timely rains compel the grain to grow;
So a smile can banish grief and care,
And a kindly word encourage prayer. [Refrain]
3 That the world form bondage may be free,
Jesus bled and died on Calvary;
Then we cannot live for self alone,
Jesus claims our service as His own. [Refrain]
4 Look today for lost ones you may win,
Seek to turn them from the paths of sin;
Not a day need pass but some can say,
“I have found the Life, the Truth, the Way.” [Refrain]
